Highlights

• Available in version 126 on the Canary channel.
• Operates on-device for enhanced privacy and control.
• Future updates to include AI-powered captioning, translation, and transcription.

Google is adding its Gemini AI-assisted feature called “Help Me Write” directly to the Chrome browser.

Gemini Nano will be the lowest tier of Google’s GenAI for using the feature.

One of the simplest use cases for getting help with writing was one of the ways Google has already implemented this concept into many of its products, from Play Store listings to Google Docs and Google Messages.

On-Device, Privacy-Conscious AI

Gemini Nano is being integrated into the browser experience with the rollout of version 126 of the Chrome browser, now available in the Canary channel.

Soon, users will be able to seek writing assistance straight from Google’s Gemini Nano from anywhere on the web.

This could be as simple as writing a quick social media message or a client review for a business.

While these more sophisticated models, such as Gemini 1.5 Pro, may produce text of a bit higher quality, Gemini Nano is a good choice for this purpose because of its speed and—moreover—privacy concerns.

Prompts and related context are still controlled by the user because the AI model operates directly on the user’s device.

Limited Availability

While Gemini Nano is now available on just a handful of Android smartphones, Google thinks these AI-powered Chrome features will work on the great majority of desktop and laptop computers.

The company does, however, indicate that the deployment might be spaced out, much like most past Chrome feature launches.

In addition to the “Help Me Write” tool, Google has hinted at upcoming Gemini-powered services for web developers.

Artificial intelligence-provided captioning, translation, and transcription will be simple to access through a new suite of high-level web APIs.
